WASHINGTON — Karl-Anthony Towns was one of the last Timberwolves to walk out of the weight room and onto the floor at Georgetown’s practice facility. He screamed, “Let’s go,” as practice was about to begin, pulled up to hit a few three-pointers and gave a little dance as a Mary J. Blige song was playing.
Towns made his presence known at practice Friday, but his teammates will have to compensate for his absence on Saturday when they take on the Wizards.
Towns will serve the first of his two-game suspension for Wednesday’s fight with 76ers center Joel Embiid.
